I had hoped to write more this month. I had hopes of using the daily prompts for the 2013 WEGO Health "Health Activist Writer's Month Challenge" to inspire me to post/write more. Instead, I was busy actually being a Health Activist! (Isn't that essentially what WEGO Health hopes?) Since a picture is worth a thousand words, here are some glimpses into what my Health Activists activities during April 2013 looked like...

This is the "doodle" for the "Managing Chronic Diseases Better"--one of The 20 Great Challenges facing Health and Medicine addressed at TEDMED 2013. I was invited to be a Social Media Narrator and Delegate to TEDMED!

Wearing Karen Kane at The Kennedy Center for TEDMED 2013!

As seen at TEDMED 2013: Richard Simmons and me, connecting the Great Challenges!

Here is a screen grab of me on the TEDMEDLive Stream! I proudly shared how Richard @TheWeightSaint Simmons is helping change my life.

This is what the screen and TEDMED stage looked like...

Exercising w/ Richard Simmons and Surgeon General Regina Benjamin on stage at The Kennedy Center during TEDMED. (I'm behind Dr. Benjamin on the left.)

At the Air and Space Museum I met, hugged and posed with the Surgeon General!

Follow @SGRegina on Twitter.

Another Regina...@ReginaHolliday helped make me TEDMED better because TEDMED 2013 was the first chance to I had to wear my "The Walking Gallery" to a health and medical conference.

The Hive at TEDMED was buzzing through TEDMED 2013!

My TEDMED "Six Word Story" in The Hive!

The "Smart Phone Physical" started with a look inside my ear. Everything a doctor would need to give you a physical and track your body can be done w/ a Smart Phone!

A "virtual" look at the Ultrasound of the artery in my neck. "Smart Phone Physical" is a great advance for doctors and medicine. They also had a blood pressure cuff that attached to an iPhone.

After TEDMED in Washington, DC... I got back to attacking the Great Challenge of "Working Out with @TheWeightSaint" Richard Simmons' Twitter handle.
